Get ready for a beanstalk bonanza like you’ve never seen before, with just  two actors , a host of  hilarious characters and one  very big adventure sprouting up between the dinner tables! This is, we believe, is the  FIRST EVER Castle- Panto! And takes place indoors, in the Guthrie Pavilion Restaurant over a delicious festive dinner.

Join Jack  and a very overworked Dame Trott as they milk every laugh, climb every stalk, and scramble to outwit the terrifying  Giant Blunderbore – all in time for dessert. It’s guaranteed to be Fee-fi-fo-FUN!

Expect: 

🥔 Mash-ups of traditional panto and slapstick 

🐄 A cow with commitment issues 

🎤 Quick changes, cheesy jokes, and songs you’ll be humming into dessert 

🍽️ All served with a side of comedy, plenty of audience giggles, and a pinch of magic 

It’s classic panto mayhem with a minimalist twist  – packed with heart, foolishness and more than enough sparkle to keep the gravy glistening. 

 🎟️  Book your table now! It’s the Christmas experience you’ve BEAN waiting for!

Further useful information 

This is a Dinner-Panto (who knew there was such a thing!). The performance takes place (indoors) in the Guthrie Pavilion Restaurant, where you enjoy the performance from your seat at your table. This is an immersive performance with ‘action’ taking place all over the room (there is no traditional stage) – including maybe at your table! 

For further information on access to the (indoors) Guthrie Pavilion Restaurant please see the fourth video on our Access page.
